List of Heroes 3 VCMI new towns
VCMI Mod usage
To install mod unpack archive in /Mods. This should result in such directory structure: <data directory>/Mods/<name of mod>/mod.json. There is no need to activate newly installed mods – any mods not present in list of loaded mods will be considered as newly installed and will be enabled on start.
If you want to activate or deactivate specific mod open file <data dir>/config/modSettings.json. Set mod state to “false” for disabling it or to “true” for enabling. To remove mod delete its folder (<data dir>/Mods/modname). Note that there is no need to update modSettings.json manually.

HI, i downloaded and it worked perfectly fine after after a week it stopped working (the luncher wont open)
This is really strange, open the windows task manager and see if the launcher isn’t running in the background, if so, close the application manually and try to start it again.
But how many of them are really complete? I’d love to play them, but not if they are missing essentials.
No town is 100% completed, as the VCMI is not completed and some elements cannot be implemented. But many of them are in very good playable form, such as: Fairy, Haven, Factory, Court, Grove…
Good to know!
By that you mean all of the structures are working fine? I mean i think i’ve seen a few of them with all working structures.
It depends on the town, but yes, almost everything works in some newer VCMI town mods.
Is there a Forge Town with naga tanks, as it was supposed to be originally?
This old Forge version has Naga Tank: https://heroes3wog.net/classic-forge-town-v0-6-vcmi/
after following the whole process to install the game, get vcmi and copy the folder and adding the “factory town” I thought my life was about to be amazing but as I launch the game through the vcmi launcher this is what I get.
Starting…
VCMI 0.99 (client)
Creating console and configuring logger: 31
The log file will be saved to “C:\Users\Utilisateur\Documents\My Games\vcmi\VCMI_Client_log.txt”
Initialization: 78

And it doesn’t go any further.
Any help or recommendation? I feel like Im so close!
Thanks
Hi, did you use the VCMI daily build or VCMI 0.99?
